About
Talega Golf Club is one of southern California's treasures, offering a challenging Fred Couples layout that sits above the "Spanish Village by the Sea." The course winds through canyons and valleys offering scenic views of the surrounding countryside throughout. The diverse layout will test your shot-making skills and there are also several interesting risk-reward opportunities including two reachable par 4s that will please long hitters. There is an abundance of bunkers coming into play, especially along the fairways, and golfers will be faced with the occasional blind shot. The greens are extremely quick and not a single one is flat. Nearly every green has multiple tiers. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes. One of Talega's most memorable holes is the monstrous 13th. This par 5 requires a carry over not just one but two ravines.

Great Course with excellent value
Played in late afternoon. Wasn't able to finish due to darkness. Had fun and enjoyed the course and staffs there. Will come back to play again.
Amazing design to this course
I love this course, the design is great and it is very challenging. This is now in my top 10 courses in Southern California and I will be visiting more often, the price can be steel at times but it's great location and challenging features make it a must play. The greens are amazing, lots of approach choices and it's a challenge off the tee for even the longer players.
I did not get to visit the range as it is closed on Monday.
Talega
Best golf course in south Orange County. Great friendly staff that goes out of their way to be helpful
Talega
I am a return player on this course. The staff is great. Very friendly and helpful. They always meet your request.
Another wonderful round!
Even we didn’t finish 18 holes with later Tee time, still had great time.
Talega
One of the best courses in the area. Excellent customer service here. Everyone is helpful and friendly. A special nod to Carlos, the starter, who is very helpful
Another nice round
We played Talega many times, still love it very much! Such a beautiful layout !
Sunday fun day at Talega Golf Club
From 1-10 and 10 being most difficult, I would give Talega Golf Course an 8 and the greens are well kept
